*[Enwl-eng] Urgent: Donald Trump's stacked Supreme Court moves to enable racism in college admissions

[enwl]

 

This attack will not be tolerated. The Supreme Court's Assault on Affirmative Action is an Assault on Diversity and Equality. We Must Speak Up!      Sign Now        For over 40 years, affirmative action has evened the playing field for Black, Indigenous, and people of color (or BIPOC) applying to universities and colleges. Affirmative action has allowed students of color to have their entire lived experienced considered during admissions — the way their communities, families, and schools have been impacted by racial inequality and the unique obstacles they face.   But this vital tool in addressing deep-rooted systemic inequalities was just struck down. The Supreme Court that Donald Trump packed with far-right, uber-conservative justices has set the nation back decades.   Not only does this open up students of color to levels of discrimination that haven't been seen in over 40 years, but it undoubtedly will also deal a blow to these students' faith in the U.S. education system and campus communities. This is an utter tragedy.   It is crucial that Congress steps up and passes a law to codify affirmative action, safeguarding the principles of equality and racial justice. Sign the petition if you agree! Thank you, Lauren Care2 Petitions Team P.S. Affirmative action is not an advantage — it's a safeguard for BIPOC students. Sign the petition demanding it be written into law.      Sign Now
